History Lovers: It's okay that you LOVE and hate Bridgerton
I grinned, guffawed and cringed over 10 times each in the first episode of Bridgerton. I was at war with myself.
The first side of myself, who I usually show to the world, is the teacher. I am an English and Social Studies teacher with an English degree. I am a writer. And, since the age of 12, my favourite books were written in the 1800's. This side of myself did not like Bridgerton. The contemporary music (I'm sorry Billie, but Beethoven was the "it" artist in this time) and disregard for many of the social norms (husbands were not in the room when wives gave birth until the 1980's...) to make the show palatable for more people made me cringe. But, I kept watching...
